R.I.P. CER TPA

Friday the 20th of November I dedicated the Otee-O Show to my brother William Wilson aka Crazy Bill aka CERONE TPA. He was the cat that I met on the Q4 bus with Uncle Rock. I was in the back of the bus with one of my boys. I had to be about 15 and I had a copy of the Wild Style soundtrack album I just bought. Cer asked to see it and then said thank you and got off the bus. So I just got taxed but it was an honor being vicked by a legend. Cer represented the crew The Public Animals. You could see their work all over New York. They bombed parks, buildings, buses, trains, you know.
Cer lived off Linden in my neighborhood of Cambria Heights, Queens so he couldn't do dirt and not be seen around to get ya stuff back. I didn't want my stuff back; I wanted to BOMB. He put me under the wing. I met all the writers I looked up to and the sad but true thing was they were all criminals.
I'm thankful still because I had actual life death experiences that kept me out of prison and I share things with my kids to prepare them to avoid the the tricks and traps.
Crazy Bill was gunned down in Kingston, Jamaica where he had been deported to. After being robbed the bastards sprayed the cab he and a lady were in. I know Bill he wasn't a sucker and I believed he was unarmed but still a threat to them fassies that took his life. I'm never gonna get over the losses this year, but I trust the LORD's purpose for whatever He allows to happen. In the end it will all make sense

Decent Something 11/15/09

Trust me this is one of the wickedest shows I ever done. I'd like to believe that I just get better with time but the truth is I get better with routine. I have to discipline myself to practice and prepare a show that is above standard. Its not enough to just play classics or new chune. I want to provide a fresh approach, presentation and performance to the good good people who take time out of their Sunday to watch me spin record like a rass rock back idiot.
My bredren Max Glazer (twitter.com/MaxGlazer) who I religiously listen to. Came through to view on Sunday and I'm telling I are not gonna be the same. BOOM

Decent Something 45 Segment 11/15/09

You know what I do. Basically and is. Started this past Sunday I added a new
feature to the format which is to play 7" 45s at 7:45 EST on Sunday.
Big up Richie Criss and Rankin Tomas for the energy that led to the idea.. BOOM

Starting All Over Again It's Gonna Be Rough


BUMBO what a ting! My hard drive failed on me and just shut down without warning. So I lost a lot of stuff. Or so I think. I know I had all my music backed up on an external but there's some Serato situations that I'm at a current loss for. All the vinyl rips that I did I never backed up. All my little iChat business I think is dead.

Okay its today right now and a lot of progress has been made. from the previous paragraph I can see that I over reacted a bit. Things are pretty intact. I still have an issue with the pictures, but the spirit is telling me to not worry and and dive into freedom. So... OK DEN.

I still have to build up my Serato library and prep a Otee-O and a Decent Something show. I'm a try and do that today, but man did I lose some cool rips and effects. Let me stop complaining and loafing and let me get down to the business. Plus The Office coming on so there aint really that much time to tarry.

After I take the red pill, I'm a take another lude which is Jailbreaking my phone. Babu got me amp about it and I'm not as scared as I used to be. Plus my warranty is dead so no worries on that. Next time I write I should have a JB'd phone and some new order on my machine. Umoja!!

Time To Shine


I'm 42. I been this age since February. Yea I'm old. I don't feel old, but I know I'm not 16. I have lived in NY, LA, and now I'm in TX. I love Hip Hop and Dance hall. It's so intrinsic in my life. I grew up around block parties. I used to hear the music blaring out my building in The Bronx. In Queens I witnessed the Albino Twins around the corner from me KILL the microphone. I was a human B-BOX and rocked with LL Cool Jay and Rozell before they had demo tapes.

I built with Divine Styler the Freestyle Fellowship, The Pharcyde, The Born Jamericans, Sammy Levi, Scringer Ranks, Shabba, Stereo One with Stitchie and Papa San, Frick and Frack, Biz Markie, The Beatminerz, Grand Puba, Tribe Called Quest and all types of other niggas.
I ain't writing my life story here. I will do a book and a flick. Two a them matter fact. I just wanted to encourage you and myself who are blessed to get old in this dangerous world to know who you are and make the most of your experiences. The LORD has led me to be a DJ after I been an MC a breakdancer a graffiti artist, a record exec and a music retailer. I believe it's my calling and I know something big is going to happen through my efforts.

I'm looking forward to it and you oughta too. SALUTE all my DJ's and Music lovers, Artists, producers who think they have gotten too old to do them. You might not be in position to do what you want and at that time you might have to come to grips and let it go. But when you know you doing what you supposed to do regardless of how contrary it may be to popular belief, trust your maker and thank Him because His Will Be DONE! BONG BOOM KABOOM

The OTEE-O SHOW 10-30-09

Another great show. Dedicated to Jam Master Jay. The show starts about 14 seconds late, but once it going it starts kicking up. I went in on the funk, hip hop, drum n bass and rock.

I kinda took it a little easier on the visuals, but I know what I'm a run next show which is Nov 1st with the DECENT SOMETHING dedicated to the first creation that Jah made after he made everything and saw something that wasn't good. He corrected it by creating WOMAN. Thank you Jesus!! And THANK YOU FOR CHECKING FOR ME

DECENT SOMETHING

This was one of the best shows. It started on time and ended on time. Actually BeatMinerz Boss Lady Be-Lovely chided me to play for another 15 minutes and I humbly obliged, but I didn't record that part. The regulation show was too dope.
The reason why it was so hot was because we prayed before I went in. My wife prayed for me with the kids Sunday and it was so beautiful and inspiring that I couldn't got to the studio and be a schmuck. Almost every show I've had technical problems. This show ws no exception. The video froze, but the LORD rebuked it and things went back to normal. At the end of the broadcast I cut off Serato so I could disconnect my HD, but I got a message saying I had to shut down! I don't remember seeing anything like that before. Not that big of deal, but if Serato didn't back up my playlist then I wouldn't remember or improve on what i played. Maybe the LORD didn't want me to rely on that because the show was so special and shouldn't be duplicated, but I know He wants me to improve.
A couple of songs had cussing in it but for the most part the show was loaded with clean classics. The goal is to have clean programming that's why it's called DECENT SOMETHING.
I also want to say that much of the digital music was contributed by DEADLY DRAGON SOUND, FEDERATION SOUND, JOHNNY WONDER, UMOJA, DJ DESTROYER and DJ SELECT.

Many Movements. Mini-Money

This is so far a ridiculously nice year. Music I can't tell you how much I love it and thank my LORD and Savior Jesus Christ for His grace allowing me to partake in this ministry.
Quick Notes. I want to make sure I cover my skill with Serato the removal from club hawking, the rebirth of the Outta Order Hour with Decent Something, Alive on Arrival and The OteeO Show.
Man I'm thankful how God has blessed me with people early in my life that was about music in a community setting, specifically Mr. Walt the Beatminer from Music Factory was kind enough to give me a shot on this online radio station. Maseo from DeLa got the Dugout poppin and they wanted a reggae show and Walt put me on. It can only get better.


I got a wikkid support group of Tomas of Umoja, Nature of Central Booking and Max Glazer of the mighty Federation Sound keeping me up on things while they represent on the frontline while I sort of geriatrically play the back. Rakka is hollering and it's beautiful how the Beat Junkies are also kind enogh to not cut they boy off like so many for no reason has. And I nah forget my baby sister Mona Lisa kudos and all that she doing her thing trong trong this year. See it?
